Greetings, Readers!

Thank you for setting your eyes and intellects upon the first issue of Boone’s Dock Review. We are certain that it will provide you with cognitive victuals of the highest quality, and we are further assured that your “game” will improve significantly as the direct result of being a member of the elite class of readers to whom we cater. For now, I would like to take a few paragraphs of our time to introduce you to

Boone’s Dock Press and Boone’s Dock Review.

We are a publishing company (Obvious, 2011, p.101) based in Amityville, New York. To quote our mission statement: “Boone’s Dock Press originated in a moment of pure inspiration and seeks to bring that authenticity to everything we produce and promote.” There was an overall vision involved at the outset, and this vision remains with BDP as we move forward into new ventures and, indeed, toward the new horizon in publishing and reading created by the e-book market. We remain dedicated to providing high-quality products that preserve artists’ creative concepts in sustainable formats. There is no question that our new literary review for e-readers is in keeping with our mission.

From start to finish, this review is filled with some of the best new literary work on the scene. Our authors are the “real thing” – expatriates, aficionados, movers, reformed poets, unreformed poets, professors, throwbacks, progressives and, to the last, literary artists who embrace the richness of life, living and imagination in thought, word and deed. We see their work as both timely and timeless, and these qualities are integral to great literature.

In the months and years to come, we look forward to showcasing more literary excellence in the pages of Boone’s Dock Review. Perhaps more importantly, we look forward to developing a community of readers who know that we are the “go-to” for new talent and the voice of visionary literary work. As we grow, we hope that this community will take on a life of its own, and we invite you to be a part of it at www.boonesdockpress.com, where you will find information on the goings on at Boone’s Dock, as well as links to interact with our authors and editors.

Until next season, and

Always with my Appreciation and Respect,

Kempton B. Van Hoff, Publisher
